Introduction to Leisure
When you hear the word “leisure,” what images come to mind? You might think
of relaxing walks on the beach, energetic holiday meals with family, dancing with
friends or playing a game of basketball. Each of us is unique, with individual
interests. The things that you consider fun and interesting are building blocks to
your identity and tools that can be used to achieve and live your best life.
Many people fail to recognize the importance of leisure in their lives. They think
of leisure activities as something that they would do if they had more time, money
or friends with similar interests. Leisure activities might be considered frivolous or
a reward allowed only after all of the real work is complete. For people who are
always busy with family or work, it may feel like the important work is never
complete and therefore leisure is postponed, possibly until the kids are grown or
retirement. It’s not terribly uncommon for people to spend their whole life
waiting to start living.
This booklet is intended to encourage you to get involved with your leisure
interests and start living your best life today. In this booklet, we intend to impress
upon the reader with even the strongest puritanical work ethic that leisure is not
just fun and games. It’s serious business. An active leisure lifestyle can enhance
physical health and mental strength. It can enhance spiritual wellness and provide
a sense of meaning. The importance of leisure in our lives can not be understated.
Oh, and it is also a lot of fun!
There are many low cost and free leisure activities available in Cumberland and
Perry Counties. What is your thing? Team sports, gardening, reading, running,
nature, cooking travel… What makes you smile? The options seem endless. How
many different things do you want to try? The first step toward having an active
leisure life is to consider your interests.

Introduction to Leisure
Exercise—Brainstorming Leisure Interests
Grab a piece of paper and a pen and list activities that interest you. Write anything
that comes to mind. This is just a thinking exercise. Don’t worry about barriers
that might prevent you from participating. Spend 10-15 minutes on this. Just
dream.
If your stumped, try answering the following questions:
What did you enjoy doing as a child and teenager?
What activities do you engage in regularly?
What activities would you like to try in the future?
When are you happy and energized or most relaxed and focused?
Can you think of activities that are so engaging that you lose track of time?
Are there things that other people do which you wish you could try?
Browse the activities listed in this booklet for more ideas.

Domains of Wellness
Our overall well-being is made up of various components. These components
interact to build our health and quality of life. Below wellness is broken up into
five domains and an explanation is given about how you can use leisure to benefit
each domain.
Leisure and Your Physical Health
Physical health is related to how our
bodies feel, our physical strength and
stamina. Physical health is impacted by
diet and exercise. Often when we think
of diet and exercise, we imagine hard
work. Instead, consider utilizing fun
leisure activities. Would it be fun to
make healthy recipes with your kids or taste a new fruit or vegetable each week?
Think about using fun to get you moving, like walking your dog through the park,
playing catch with friends, gardening, or dancing at your local community center
(or just around the house).
It is recommended that adults aged 18-64 should do at least 150 minutes (2.5
hours) of moderate physical activity throughout the week or 75 minutes of
vigorous-intensity aerobic physical activity throughout the week. If that sounds
like a lot of time, then you understand the importance of finding fun activities to
help you achieve and maintain your optimal physical health. Remember when
exercising you should always listen to your body’s warning symptoms, and consult
a doctor if exercise causes chest pain, irregular heartbeat, unusual fatigue, nausea,
unexpected breathlessness, or light-headedness.
Leisure and Your Cognitive Strength
Cognitive strength is brain strength. Just like your
physical health, it is different for everyone but
essentially it involves how well you can make
decisions, and understand and remember
information. There are many ways that you can
use your interests to improve and maintain your
cognitive health. Games, puzzles, memorizing
songs, poetry or plays, studying for GED classes,
or just reading books that you enjoy, allow you to
flex your mental muscles. Even scheduling leisure
activities can be an exercise in research, planning
and organizing. As your brain power grows, you
enhance your memory, reasoning, and problem
solving skills. You might also notice enhanced ability to focus your attention and
a better understanding of the world.
10
Domains of Wellness
Leisure and Spirituality/Meaning
People differ greatly in the ways that we
experience spirituality and meaning. In
general, spirituality makes us feel that
we are connected to something greater
than ourselves. It is common to hear
spirituality and immediately think of
religion. While it is true that for many
people, religious activities like prayer
and attending religious services do
inspire them to feel a connection to a
higher power, others may sense a
connection to something greater
through meditation, nature or art.
Meaning can be understood as your reason for getting up in the morning. How
do you answer the questions “What do you do?” and, “What gives your life a
purpose?” You might be an artist and painting gives you a purpose. Or you might
be a father whose children provide a sense of purpose. These things hold great
importance to you and help to explain who you are in the world, artist or parent.
Your spirituality and meaning may come from the same sources. For example,
someone might find spirituality and meaning in the things they do related to their
religion. Or spirituality and meaning might come from separate sources. An artist
might finding meaning in painting and experience spirituality in nature. What
inspires us to experience the feelings of spirituality and meaning are very personal.
We can express and experience spirituality and meaning through our leisure
activities.
11
Domains of Wellness
Leisure and Social Life
Social wellness involves our ability to relate to and connect
with other people. This includes the ability to establish and
maintain positive relationships with family, friends and
peers. When leisure activities involve other people, you have
the opportunity to exercise social skills, laugh, share stories
and form your interests by telling you about upcoming activities. This cycle of
friends and activities can lead to an active leisure life. Just like the benefits of
being active seem endless, so are the benefits of friendship. Friends share our joys
and give support during tough times, a second opinion when we are unsure, and
connections to help us avoid feeling lonely and isolated.
Consider looking through the activity section of this booklet with a friend in
search of activities that you can do together. If you read the booklet
independently, think about the people in your life who might want to join you for
an outing. And, always remember as you meet new people, to consider inviting
them to future activities. An active social life blossoms when you offer and accept
invitations to do fun things.
Leisure and Emotions
Emotional wellness relates to our ability to understand and cope
with life’s challenges. The ability to acknowledge and share
feelings of anger, fear, sadness or stress, hope love, joy and
happiness in a productive manner contributes to emotional
wellness.
Leisure can help you to feel positive emotions and it can be a great medicine to
alleviate boredom and give you a break from frustrations. Maybe in your past, you
have wanted to feel happy but found it difficult. You are not alone. In any
bookstore, you will find shelves full of books instructing the reader on how to
achieve a happier life. If joy did not require effort, these bookshelves would be
empty. While this booklet explains that leisure is important for reasons beyond
the emotional pay-off, this does not intend to diminish the importance of the
good feelings that go along with activities.
In leisure we experience positive emotions, but we also have an opportunity to
improve our emotional strengths with coping skills. Life will bring frustrations,
even when your doing fun things. Therefore it is important to practice coping
skills that will help you to achieve calm, contentment, peace, and inner strength.
After a rough day, you might experience relief by venting to a friend, kicking a
ball, lifting weights or running. Also consider the calming effects associated with
yoga, meditation, prayer and deep breathing. By practicing activities that help you
feel emotionally centered, you can enhance your emotional wellness and ability to
cope with difficult situations.
12
Domains of Wellness
Exercise—Domains of Wellness
Step 1: On a piece of paper, create headings for each domain: physical, cognitive,
spiritual/meaning, social, emotion
Step 2: Write at least two activities that match each domain. List more if you can
think of more. Activities that you list for this exercise should be things that you
are interested in trying. For activity ideas, review your brainstorming list from the
previous “Brainstorming Leisure Interests” exercise on page 9, or browse the
Activities section of this booklet.

Using Leisure to Achieve Goals
A goal is more than a dream. Dreams are wishes. Goals are things that you
commit to achieving because they are worth your efforts. How can you tell the
difference? People with goals can tell you what actions they are doing (not what
they will do someday) to achieve the results they want.
The first step in turning a dream to a goal is to plan how you will achieve the
desired results. Sometimes, just thinking about the work can feel overwhelming.
This is where leisure becomes valuable. Leisure makes the work feel more like
fun. With some creative thought, you can probably find ways to achieve many of
your goals in fun and exciting ways.
Think about the ways most people plan to improve their physical fitness. They
give up deserts, avoid restaurants, sweat at the gym, and even eat nothing but
grapefruit for weeks. Essentially this type of planning assumes that to reach goals,
adults stop doing things that they enjoy and start doing things they do not enjoy.
It should not surprise anyone to hear that most diets fail. What if, instead of
focusing your efforts on things that you dislike, you used fun as a means to
improve your physical health? Yup, actual real-life fun. You could meet-up with
friends for a healthy potluck and recipe trade, do Zumba at the gym, play Frisbee
with your kids, enjoy a game of baseball… The options are nearly endless.
Some activities require creativity to consider how to incorporate leisure into
objectives. If your goal is to get your own apartment, objectives might include: 1)
choose a neighborhood, 2) save $500 for a deposit, 3) contact a broker, 4) visit 5
apartments, 5) pick one, and submit an application, 6) hire movers, 7) pack, 8)
move. Can you think of ways to make these objectives fun? Maybe you could
explore neighborhoods by jogging outdoors, or by meeting friends at local coffee
shops. You could save money by exchanging pricey activities with free activities,
like those listed in this booklet. Also, you might invite friends to visit apartments
with you and join you for packing/moving parties? There are countless ways you
could make frustrating activities more fun, which will increase your chances of
reaching your goals. An easy technique that can be used in most situations is
playing your favorite music while working on goals.
14
Using Leisure to Achieve Goals
Exercise—Goal Planning
Step 1—Brainstorm
The first part of goal planning is to brainstorm. Put your dreams on paper. Write
all of the changes and accomplishments you want for yourself. Think about this
month, this year, next year, five years, ten years. Consider each of the Domains of
Wellness and DREAM BIG!
Step 2—Selection
Pick one achievement that is important to you. Ask yourself why this is important
to you. Is it something you are motivated to do or something other people would
want for you? When your goals are valuable to you, it is more likely that you will
stick to them. Are you ready to commit, willing and able to do the necessary
work? What can you do to enhance your confidence in your ability to achieve
your goal?
Step 3—Objectives
Consider where you are today in comparison to where you want to be. What
action steps are necessary to accomplish your goal? List specific, measurable
actions. This way you will have no doubt when you have completed a task. Use
you leisure interests as much as possible to enhance your chances of success.
Step 4—Make Deadlines
Create a deadline for each of your objectives and goals. Be realistic about how
much time each will require. If you miss a deadline, don’t stress and don’t give up.
Think about why it is taking longer than expected and reconsider the amount of
time you need.

Community Based Leisure—Planning
Just as there are many benefits associated with leisure participation, there are also
many challenges. You might not be able to predict everything that will happen,
but with thoughtful planning, a support system and coping skills, you can face
most difficulties and still enjoy your leisure pursuits. In this section, we will
discuss some of the challenges you might encounter. As you read the different
possibilities, consider how you might deal with them. Confidence in your ability
to face challenges will help to assure that you will not be distracted from your
goals or dissuaded from pursuing your leisure interests when the going gets
rough.
The first challenge involved in participating in leisure activities is picking just one
activity. After you pick an activity, you have to find a place that offers it, at a
reasonable cost, plan transportation, gain the necessary skills, and decide which, if
any, friends to invite. People who use wheelchairs or have a physical disability
have an additional step in planning because they must ensure that activities are
inclusive and accessible.
16
Community Based Leisure—Planning
Exercise—Planning
Up to this point, you’ve done several exercises that encouraged you to think
about activities that interest you and how they can benefit you. For this exercise,
you will pick one activity, and plan it. Answer the following questions:
1.
Where can you do this activity?
____________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________
2.
When can you do this activity?
____________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________
3.
What transportation will you use to get there?
____________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________
4.
What are the costs of transportation and activity participation? Are there any
other costs, such as food and water?
____________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________
5.
What skills will you need? Do you understand the rules and regulations? Do
you need training and, if so, will training be available?
____________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________
6.
Is there anyone who you would like to invite?
____________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________
7.
What type of clothing is appropriate for the activity?
____________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________
8.
If you need accommodations, such as wheelchair accessibility, are
accommodations available?
____________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________
9.
What do you expect to achieve by doing this activity? You might want to
have fun, relax, bonding time with friends, or to learn something new.
Remind yourself of the purpose of the activity so you can stay focused on
your goal.
____________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________
17
Community Based Leisure—Planning
If you take your time and answer these questions in advance, you will have less
angst during the day of your activity. Still, even with the best planning, you might
find yourself running late, a friend might forget your plans, the weather might be
bad, a bus might be late… Though these things can be frustrating and they are
not terribly uncommon. Learning to accept things as they are and not how you
meant for them to be is a big part of maintaining a healthy leisure lifestyle.
Possibly the most challenging thing that you could encounter are the people who
are not understanding of your specific needs or struggles. You can decide who to
invite when you plan an activity, but you can’t always control who else will be
there. Some people are just plain mean for no reason. Other people might be
having a bad day. Even good friends can sometimes seem distant or
uncooperative. Sometimes it’s hard to figure out the motives people have for
being unpleasant. Remember Oscar the Grouch? That guy never had a good day.
On Sesame St, people knew what to expect and they didn’t take it personally. Try
to avoid Oscars as much as possible and surround yourself with people whose
happiness is obvious to you. If people don’t seem eager to join you in activities,
consider inviting other people or finding activities that will allow you to make new
friends.
18
Community Based Leisure—Planning
Exercise—Challenges
Using the same activity you picked for the Planning Exercise (Page 17), consider
potential challenges. Think about all of the things that could go wrong. Consider
problems you have faced in the past and how you can navigate those issues
without being distracted from your goal. This is not meant to cause you anxiety,
but to give you an opportunity to consider how you might respond to those
challenges.

Community Based Leisure—Planning
At this point you might be wondering if it is worth all of the effort. YES is the
answer, a thousand times, YES! Community based leisure can bring frustrations,
but for those who can get past them, there is the potential for friendships,
adventure, self-improvement and lots of fun. Your skills and support system will
help you to overcome challenges.
Your skills are the inner strengths and abilities that will help you to be successful.
Are you patient, a good listener, calm in a crisis? Is it easy for you to make new
friends or maintain strong friendships? These are valuable skills. They are assets
that you have within you.
Supports are things that can be found outside of yourself. Friends, family, peers, a
therapist or a doctor can be good supports. Supports can also include informative
websites, music that calms you, prayer, meditation, good luck charms… These are
things outside of yourself that can help you be successful.
20
Community Based Leisure—Planning
Exercise—Strengths & Supports
1.
Make a success list. What are your greatest successes? Success doesn’t mean
perfection. Successes don’t have to be huge. Your successes can be the things
you’ve done well and/or things you’ve completed. You might be a successful
parent, friend, student or worker. You might have achieved a beautiful
garden, clean home or earned a degree. Do you have an apartment or a car?
On your success list, include everything that you are proud of.
____________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________

2.
List the skills that you used to achieve each success. Has it required patience
to be a good parent, listening skills to be a good friend, reading and
understanding skills to be a good student? Think deeply about the skills
associated with each of your successes. You increase your chances of
continued success when you understand and use the skills that led to
previous successes.

remain calm, energized and focused?
____________________________________________________________
